This weekend is the 160m contest.  I have not been on much lately, but last
night had the best conditions I have seen in years.  Many good signals out
of EU and Carrib.  I worked D4B easily.  I also worked Bill, W5SJ, operating
PR0F.  I heard at least 20 countries without trying very hard.  I did not
get on until after 0500Z so I don't know how conditions were earlier.  I did
not get up this morning but I see that DX stations were spotted.  I see that
unfortunately thunderstorms are forecasted for tonight (is this January?).

Good luck and have fun,

Jim
